Re: [jira] Updated: (NUTCH-110) OpenSearchServlet outputs illegal xml characters

[Dawid Weiss]

Yes but (I think -- I haven't confirmed) this basic escaping is being 
done by the DOM streaming. It at least is converting characters like 0xC 
to .

I'd have to look at the code and see how the XML is serialized... Most 
DOM streaming classes will encode entities somehow, so you shouldn't 
worry about it. But once we're at it, it doesn't make sense to build a 
DOM tree to output the XML -- it is much faster to simply serialize it 
directly to the output stream.

So, will I amend the patch in NUTCH-110 so it uses 
XMLSerializerHelper#toValidXmlText in place of #getLegalXml method?

Copy the method's contents. It doesn't really make sense to copy the 
entire class just for this method. Good luck.
